Gov. Romney’s Response to Santorum’s Campaign Suspension

Senator Santorum is an able and worthy competitor, and I congratulate him on the campaign he ran. He has proven himself to be an important voice in our party and in the nation. We both recognize that what is most important is putting the failures of the last three years behind us and setting America back on the path to prosperity.

I will concede that Santorum lead a good fight in the GOP Presidential race. I wish all the well for their daughter Bella. Like in the past, Romney has Christ-like character. After all that has been said and done, he still praises Santorum for all the good that has been done. Now that’s class.

After reading a lot of the pundits today on Santorum suspending his campaign, the media is saying that Ron Paul now is the “alternative” to Romney. Really? Wow. Okay. And Gingrich has said that he plans to take all of Santorum’s votes and will stay in the race until Tampa. Really? Wow. Okay.

* Former House speaker Newt Gingrich might not be on the ballot for the June 26 Utah primary, because his check for the $500 filing fee bounced. If the fee isn’t paid by April 20, he will be disqualified. Wow. A bounced check for $500 from a Presidential campaign. Sad.

That’s Gingrich’s old problem: he lacks control on personal spending. The last thing we need is a president who can’t control his own pocketbook. If anything, let the president raise his controversy over the fact that he vetoes like crazy, and let the media outlets whine their heads off.
